Pearse Redmond returns to Trans Resister Radio to tell tales from his recent trip to Ireland. He and Aaron discuss the powerful mystique of ancient sites such as Newgrange.
Good friend Aaron Franz joins me on the show this week to discuss our recent work in The American Journal of Economics and Sociology.

Aaron and I talk about the actual writing process and the challenges involved in writing for an academic journal.
